Can I Use Facebook to Promote My Online Sales Event?

In summary, a Facebook Online Sales Event is a virtual event on the Facebook platform where businesses can promote and sell their products to a targeted audience. To attend, you must have a Facebook account and can either search for the event or receive an invitation. Purchases can be made directly from the event page, and individuals can also host their own event. There are no fees for attending, but businesses may incur fees for advertising or processing payments. Hosting an event is free unless the business chooses to run ads or promotions.

Some friends and I are interested to use a FB event, (and also send out evites) to invite people to shop with us during the month of November. Each person in the group sells something different, so in a sense it's like a month long booth at an online vendor show.

In reading through the policy on Social Networking, I don't see anything that indicates I cannot participate. What I'm mostly concerned with is how we "advertise" ourselves, or at least myself. Should I direct them to my FB page, or my PWS...CAN I include my PWS address in the event information page?

TIA..hoping maybe someone else has done this before :)
 
I don't believe you can include your pws on the info page (I'm probably totally wrong here)
But what I've done for FB parties is just click "send message" to all the people attending or maybe attending and sending them the link in a message.

See that is what I was thinking too...I could direct them to my FB page, where my PWS is posted, but I want it to be easy, without violating the rules :)
 
I haven't gone into the PG to make sure, but I don't see why you couldn't. You're allowed to post your PWS on FB, and you're not paying for the advertising.
 
I'm with Noora. The way I read the new policy this would be completely acceptable.
